Outreach to Teach

Members of the NEA Student Program, including Student CTA leader Jess Sanchez (left), joined forces with NEA Retired members, educators and school staff to make over two schools in Denver, the state that hosted the NEA RA in summer 2014. Watch the school sites bloom, thanks to these dedicated future educators.

NEA's 'Degrees Not Debt' Campaign

'Degrees Not Debt' campaign designed to help students access the American Dream

Every American deserves a fair shot at higher education. College is increasingly unattainable for students, and existing student debt exceeds an astounding $1.2 trillion. There are approximately 40 million people in the U.S. who have student debt. Student debt averages $29,400 per person.

It’s time to TAKE ACTION and reduce student debt. NEA has launched "Degrees Not Debt," an informational campaign to help NEA members, students, and their families learn about their options to make college more affordable - AND to illuminate the crisis, NEA held a WEEK OF ACTION in November.
